Continental Silver: How To Identify, Decode & Value Non-British Silver Hallmarks
Continental silver is common to find, and if you want to profit financially from buying and selling precious metals, you need to be able to identify non-British silver hallmarks because different countries have different grades of silver which means different values.

Therefore, being able to identify different grades of silver is essential in valuation. If you know what your silver weighs and what grade you have, you will know exactly how much it is worth and, importantly, if you are looking to buy, exactly how much to pay. This video cove...

    Silver prices have been suppressed for decades by banks and possibly governments. We are running out of it fast and being used up faster than it is being mind out of the ground.

    Slap’s “Eleven Rules For Storing Gold & Silver At Home” 1) A safe advertises hidden valuables, but if you must use a safe, bolt it down and load it with VERY heavy weights. 2) Store some decoy/sacrificial coins/cheap jewelry in an easy-to-find location. Then hide the good stuff well. 3) Unless you use a safe, NEVER hide your stash in a bedroom or bedroom closet. 4) Same as #3, but insert “study” and “pantry”. 5) Forget hollowed-out books, fake soup cans, etc… your stack will be stolen in less than 5 minutes. 6) If using a desk, bookcase or shelf, make sure your hiding spot won’t be revealed if these are tipped over. Because they WILL be tipped over. 7) You WILL want frequent access to your stash (to add to it, look at it, or (god forbid) take from it)… don’t make access difficult (behind drywall, buried in the yard, need a sledgehammer to get to it, etc.). 8) Unless using a safe, the best spots are in plain sight and LIKELY TO BE OVERLOOKED, or they’re multi-layered (meaning you have to move this, shift that, lift this and open that in order to access your stash). 9) Make sure someone you trust (spouse, financial planner, estate attorney, etc) has a sealed “open in the event of my death” letter describing where your stash is hidden. 10) With the exception of #9 above, NEVER EVER talk about your stash or that it’s in your home. 11) Never hide valuables where a contractor doing work in your house or yard might come across them. KEEP IN MIND: The average duration of a home burglary in the US is just 11 minutes… thieves want a quick hit-and-run. Don’t make it easy for them!

    For the handyman....get an old work electrical box for an outlet. Cut it in to the wall. Fill with your metals. Add an outlet and cover. Will fit roughly 30 or so 1oz pieces plus some fractional. Can plug and old lamp or something into it also for added effect.

    There's other stuff too like fake books, dvd cases, wall sockets, garden stones etc, but imo they're kinda obvious to the trained eye. I think its better to make your own using original items and to spread your stack, leaving tit bits for them to find and make do. The drainpipe with caps on either end is a long standing method still used by preppers for hiding caches

    Even with all your knowledge it must take a while to value all this and make a profit ?

    • @PreciousMetalDetectives
      @PreciousMetalDetectives Місяць тому

      Hi John. Thanks for your comments. Valuing is quite straight forward… live scrap prices are easily available online and all you need to know otherwise is the weight of the item. Takes a couple of minutes tops to work out value. Check out my latest video which goes through the process of how to value using these two pieces of information. For non precious metal items, eBay sold pages are invaluable for ascertaining collectors value. Again this takes just a few minutes. When you weigh up time spent per item vs profit made its well worth it and much more of a “passive” income stream compared to traditional jobs

      Hi Tony. Thanks for your comment. Are you in America? We don’t have flea markets here in UK but anywhere you can find second hand gold & silver is ideal. The key is to be able to correctly identify hallmarks so you know exactly what you are buying. Check out my other videos to learn more

    • @PreciousMetalDetectives
      @PreciousMetalDetectives Місяць тому

      Thanks Tony. It’s hard to say when a financial crash will happen, but our economic system is cyclical and crashes happen every few years reliably. We are due for one, and you can see countries around the world preparing for this by the mass hoarding of gold. Inflation is the biggest issue happening right now, and all of our hard earned cash is being eroded of value as we speak. In summary, a financial crash is looming where our money will be hugely at risk of loss. It’s hard to say when. More pressing is devaluing caused by inflation. This is happening now and will worsen throughout 2025
